Shadow Warrior is a fine example of how a PC release should look like. All saves are accessible via the Load game menu and all saved games are divided by difficulty and chapter to avoid clutter. There is also checkpoint system that works very well and maps your progress through the game. If you feel overwhelmed, feel free to use one of four preset setting: LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH and ULTRA.Ī long lost feature called quick-saving is back! The game lets the player save anywhere they want, even in the middle of combat. This menu features a lot of settings that will make every PC enthusiast happy. Menu and its content is very similar to the last Road Hog Engine game with the addition of two new effects - ambient occlusion and mirrors, which will be talked about later in more detail. There is no launcher and everything can be set directly from the game without restarting, something that is not very common and developers deserve to be praised. It was used in their previous game, Hard Reset, and it is making a return with some tweaks and new effects. Shadow Warrior is based on the Road Hog Engine developed by Flying Wild Hog studio. Download size is slightly under 7GB, with the same amount of space occupied on the HDD. Testing was done on a system with Core i7 clocked to 4.5 GHz, 32 GB RAM and an AMD Radeon HD 6870 in 1920x1200 resolution.
